In the aftermath of developing a relationship with one's public...

To create work from the center of one's most inner being and then share that private seed of discovery is a very enlightening and challenging experience. As the people strolled into the gallery throughout the evening I was forever looking at the work through their eyes. What do they see? Can they feel the balance, happiness, tension and energy? Do they need my presence to make it work for them or does the work hold its own conversation. Will they find it too complicated? Too simple or basically not captivating? As the numbers of visitors intensified and the reflections were communicated back to me I was humbled to hear exciting responses and positive feedback that collected like drops of rain water in the lid of a barrel. Yes, it was a precious moment of exaltation that lasted all the while the flame of the kiss was lit. The seed has been sown... I ache to begin again.
